Simply Amazing

Im a grown man who has worked in fast paced tough environments but I burst into tears after speaking to one of the agents from step change. I had got to the point when I no longer thought I deserved help or for someone to speak to me like a human. They were kind, supportive and explained everything so well. They continue to support me now through my DMP it means I can repay my debts without losing everything and still being able to live. Simply outstanding Reviewed on: 23rd April 2020

Finances Took a Turn for The Worst - Step Change Where There To Help

5
My finances took a turn for the worst after experiencing a bout of depression, the debts kept mounting, I kept sweeping the problem under the carpet as I struggled to make payments and general living costs. In my desperation I contacted Step Change to seek advice and it was a huge relief, The staff at Step Change helped me set up a payment plan that was far more manageable and did so with a level of exemplary customer care and human empathy. This wonderful charity is a none-profit organisation and the amazing staff treated me with the utmost respect and understanding. Now I feel there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
